you must have finally realized <br /> the meaning of moonlight <br />the reason for shadows <br />the justification for twilight <br />the madness of mornings without love <br />the nights that dance with the flesh <br />you must have eaten the red apple <br />from the beginning it was forbidden <br />there are sparks all over your hair <br />electricity in its static forms <br />smooth as silk and frictionless as a flamboyance <br />there is this distance between each star each planet <br />things move on their own now <br />systematically you see a universe <br />yours and mine <br />now we start again from the beginning <br />ask me for my name <br />ask me where do i live <br />ask me what is the reason for my being <br />ask me why i live why i still do not want to die <br />we meet we talk we laugh and then we part <br />as usual so casual as causal as destined.<br /><br />RIC S.
